34. She/Her. Resident gremlin. RIP Twitter. Sometimes I do art, sometimes I hyperfixate.

As exhausted as I am about Star Fox being remade AGAIN... the new character designs are growing on me. Unpopular opinion, I know. The more animalistic/realistic designs are a big departure from "cute animal head on human body" that was a thing since the very beginning, but I don't dislike it.

This week I learned that frog hotels are a thing... so I made one for the local tree frogs! It's really basic right now and I might add other stuff later. Once it warms up again and we hopefully get some more rain next week we might have some guests. I may make some toad abodes on the ground, too. 🐸

Photo of a frog hotel set up outside at the corner of a house. The build consists of a wide plastic container resembling a wooden wash tub filled to the top with water, and PVC pipes topped with elbow pieces standing up from inside the tub. The pipes are being held in place by river rocks also filling the tub. The tub is placed on a square paver block to provide a flat surface to sit on the ground.

Some frog themed decorations are included with the frog hotel, including a metal frog hanging off the edge of the tub, a small frog laying on a toadstool, and a larger, rotund frog sitting with its hands held together.

Next to the frog hotel, against the corner of the house, is a gutter downspout with a gargoyle fitted on the end, sitting on the splash block.

I felt inspired by the new Mario movie, so I drew Space Furries-- I mean... Star Fox. I always preferred the original designs and the puppets from the SNES era, when they looked a lot more animal-like. I love this franchise so much and want to believe so badly that it's not dead.

Image is a digital drawing by the original poster of the Star Fox Team, made using sharp line work that varies in weight and bright color fills against a gray background. The team is all standing in 3/4 view. From left to right is Falco Lombardi, Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare, and Slippy Toad, drawn with designs based on their appearance for the 1993 game Star Fox (Starwing in PAL regions).

Falco has his head in profile with a cocky smile, his arms crossed in front of him. Fox holds a similarly confident expression and has his arms akimbo. Peppy has one ear flopped over halfway and holds his hands behind his back. Slippy holds his webbed hands out in a "jazz hands" pose.

Whoever remembers me posting the funny picnic table bug during my first playthrough of Pokémon Scarlet... I recreated it on the Switch 2. New console, same game, same jank, still funny.

Stranger Things is cool and all, but the one and only thing that has me all excited from the Chapter 2 DLC for DbD is getting to watch the latest trailer purely to see my boy get brutally turned into a pretzel in high definition. I am very normal about Dwight Fairfield.

(1/5) I am BEGGING parents of teens and tweens to take internet safety seriously, give them "the talk" on predators, and monitor their screen usage and who they hang out with. This past weekend we had two 12yo girls get kidnapped by a predator and they're lucky to still be alive let alone unharmed.

HEY SEGA GENESIS/MEGA DRIVE FANS I'm considering getting the Genesis Mini and Mini 2. Being raised on almost exclusively Nintendo, I've never played any Genesis games in my life besides the Sonic games emulated on different platforms. What are some good non-Sonic games I should play first?

(1/2) Here's a spring cleaning idea for those who might need it: Cancel those subscriptions you haven't actively engaged with in literal months. Save your money. You'll feel a lot better for it.

Discord has apparently added generative AI "apps" users can use to modify any image posted in any discord server. On by default, no way to disable them, no moderation tools. Fuck discord, support artists (discord sure doesn't).
